It's great to meet you!
I am a licensed psychotherapist and consultant specializing in individual psychotherapy and couple's therapy. I have extensive experience in the areas of PTSD, childhood wounding/abuse, relational, developmental, and attachment issues. I believe everyone deserves a safe, secure space that welcomes all of them. Together we will explore the parts of yourself that seem harder to navigate, and over time we can develop a new understanding of the internal walls that hold you back from growth and a sense of connection.
Many individuals in my practice are courageously healing from painful life experiences, or are curious about the drawbacks to their resistance to being vulnerable with others. I offer a safe space that is free of judgement to explore the deeper parts of yourself, and strive to make difficult aspects of therapy more tolerable and less overwhelming.
My practice offers individual therapy for adults, and couples therapy. I provide individual therapy that is informed by a variety of approaches, including Internal Family Systems and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, as well as couples therapy utlizing Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy. I am also certified to provide EMDR, an extensively researched, evidence-based practice that can help people recover from trauma and other distressing experiences.
If you are ready for relief, I look forward to joining you on your healing journey.
